WIKIBLOOD FLASHCARDS


Actions and Tools of the Innate Immune System

Question Answer Article
True or False: The innate immune system responds quicker to infection than the adaptive immune system
  • True
Link to Answer Article
Pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) are expressed by which type of cells?
  • Lipopolysaccharides or Gram Negative bacteria
  • Peptidoglycans of gram-positive bacteria
  • Mannose sugars
  • D-isoform amino acids
Link to Answer Article

  • Outcompete pathogens at epithelial and mucosal surfaces
Link to Answer Article
Complete the sentence about commensal organisms When commensals are disturbed, infection with opportunistic organisms is increased Link to Answer Article
Name the three main humoral factors and their principal action
  • Lysozyme
  • Digests bacterial cell walls
  • Complement
  • Promotes phagocytosis or lysis of invading organisms
  • Interferons
  • Make uninfected cells resistant to infection
Link to Answer Article
Which granulocytes are components of the innate immune response to infection?
  • Neutrophils
  • Eosinophils
  • Basophils/mast cells
Link to Answer Article
Which other cells are components of the innate immune response to infection?
  • Monocytes
  • Tissue mast cells
  • Macrophages
